[Locke.]

Everybody's season predictions on page 1 please

Title Winner: Chelsea
Champions League Spots: Chelsea, Utd, Arsenal, Liverpool
Surprise Package: Bournemouth. Play some good football and have got more than enough to finish towards the top of the bottom half.
Largest Drop from Last Season: Leicester. 14th last season, they are going down this season after losing Cambiasso and appointing Ranieri.
Relegated: Leicester, Norwich, Villa.

[karl100589]

Newcastle, Don't you dare put me through the ringer like you did last year

[Shaun]

Title Winner: United
Champions League Spots: Chelsea, Utd, Arsenal, City
Surprise Package: Villa. Time for Big Tim to become a hero and guide them to an amazing ninth.
Largest Drop from Last Season: probably Leicester yeah but I feel like being ~different~ and saying Newcastle
Relegated: Norwich, Newcastle and Leicester

[Brother Leon]

Title Winners: Chelsea

Top 4 in order: Chelsea,United,Arsenal,City(they most likely aren't done in the window yet, but as is)

Relegation: Leicester,One of the promoted teams,Norwich.


Stoke will be the surprise package and over achieve.

[Mystic Mock]

Title Winners: Man Utd

Top 4: Man Utd, Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal

Surprise Package: I'm saying Bournemouth, they're a decent side who can play on the floor.

Largest Drop From Last Season: I'm saying Crystal Palace.

Relegation: Watford, Sunderland, Aston Villa

[Babayaro.]

Title Winner: Chelsea

Champions League spots (In order): Chelsea, Man Utd, Arsenal, Man City

Surprise package: Crystal Palace

Largest drop from last season: Swansea. Came 8th last season and can see them finishing around 12th/13th this year

Relegated: Watford, Norwich, Leicester

[Ryan57]

Based on current squads:

Title Winner: Chelsea
Champions League Spots (in order): Chelsea, City, Arsenal and United.
Surprise Package: Stoke City.
Largest Drop from Last Season: Southampton if they get through to the Europa League group stage.
Relegated: Bournemouth, Norwich and Watford. Or Villa.

By the way, United have absolutely no chance of winning a single thing with the current defence. We'll scrape top four at best. Let alone the title. Check out the defending against PSG last night which further reinforces how the defence isn't good enough. It's looking like Van Gaal is favouring Jones and Blind at centre back...

Add to that we might still lose De Gea. He's probably desperate to leave. Poor bastard having Jones and Blind infront of him.

[Drew.]

Title Winner: Arsenal
Champions League Spots: Arsenal, Chelsea, United, City
Surprise Package: Watford.. Strongest team originally from the promoted sides and have strengthened the most this summer
Largest Drop from Last Season: West Brom, Mid table club usually but with any luck they'll be hovering about the relegation zone this season
Relegated: Bournemouth, West Brom & Norwich

[Shaun]

getting a bit boring really, this trophy-winning malarkey

[gamepodfan]

come on burnley
oh wait

[Brother Leon]

Fantastic bus parking by Arsenal there.

[Babayaro.]

lol watch Arsenal finish 3rd

[Shaun]

season's not even started and we already have some salt in this thread <3

[Black Dagger]

Sanchez needs to give me his salt.

[Drew.]

Barclays Asia Trophy, Emirates Cup and Community Shield.. The most impressive treble has been completed, We might as well add the Premier League to that now

[Brother Leon]

Football is back!!!!



May Memphis bless the league with his God gifted abilities.

[Drew.]

Goodbye weekends again for another 9 months

[Shaun]

hello excuse to do nothing at the weekends for the next 9 months <3

[Black Dagger]

I'm dreading it.

[Iceman]

I'm working weekends cause of this. Apparently it's amazing in work cause there's a real buzz around.

[Locke.]

The time has finally arrived

[Ryan57]

Romero, Darmian, Smalling, Blind, Shaw, Schneiderlin, Carrick, Young, Depay, Mata, Rooney

At least it's not Jones in over Smalling.

[Babayaro.]

I can relax until 5.30, that's when things get serious

[Drew.]

Pretty interesting match to kick the season off.. Time to see what Depay is all about & whether Kane can continue to keep banging them in. A draw is needed though

[Ryan57]

Absolute pile of crap. Holding on like a relegation side. Took 65 minutes to fashion a shot on target. Good job Spurs were crap. Same sh it, different season.

[Shaun]

*dreads to think what Ryan's post would've been had it been a draw/loss*

[LeatherTrumpet]

that will be last on MOTD then

[Ryan57]

*dreads to think what Ryan's post would've been had it been a draw/loss*

[Shaun]

Leicester, Watford, Palace & United top four :clap1: love it when the struggling teams start off well x

[Shaun]

time to buy a Leicester season ticket

[Marcus.]

bournemouth losing

[Ryan57]

LEICESTER JUST DID

:umm2:

Of all the fecking teams.

Leicester, Watford, Palace & United top four :clap1: love it when the struggling teams start off well x

You cheeky bastard. :joker: #ComeBackFergie

[Drew.]

Some great games to open up the season.. Watford will be a threat this season

[Locke.]

Swansea looking good, Shelvey pulling all the strings. He's turning into a proper player for them now, will always be a bit gutted we let him go. Chelsea looked very flat even with 11, hopefully they stay on a downward spiral for a while

[Legend killer]

Louis really is ****ing terrible.

Why he keeps benching our best midfielder in Ander I will never understand

Why does he persist on playing Depay down the centre with Mata out wide

Why does he persist on the ****e formation

Hopefully it doesn't take him 6 months like last year

[BBfanUSA]

I have a feeling that Everton is sacking Roberto before the season's done

[Shaun]

2016/17 is our year!!!!!!

[James]

Looks like Bilic's team selection in the Europa paid off then.

[GiRTh]

Credit to West Ham they showed us how to play away from home. They totally deserved the win and had a few chances to make it 3 or 4.
#
Another season and again I'm complaining about our main striker. I like Giroud he works hard but lats face it, he's not good enough. The more I watch him play the more I want us to sign any striker. Anyone other than him.

[Drew.]

We've been bent over and royally ****ed, every man apart from Ox standing there still expecting someone else to make something happen. West Ham are a problem this year, especially Payet.

[Jake.]

West Ham showed us how it's done, some great defence and it just wasn't good enough on our part from the majority

[Babayaro.]

That was some strike from Coutinho

[Locke.]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Black Dagger]

Right. Now time for us to do our bit with Chelsea and Arsenal messing up and United and Liverpool still not looking special even with the victory.

Can't see us doing much with that shocking defensive problems and don't expect us to take advantage but we can hope.

[GiRTh]

Whats with these ten points Cech is gonna win for us this season. Not playing like that he aint

[LeatherTrumpet]

Anyone who uses that argument in their favour doesn't deserve being spoken to... Of course you'll get fans leaving a couple of minutes earlier & making it more noticeable in a stadium which seats 60,000+ compared to stadiums seating 20-30,000

[BBfanUSA]

The US TV Deal got renewed for 6 more years.

NBC's Coverage has been stellar so I'm glad that's continuing (Which means more Rebecca Lowe :love:). Hopefully they can look into buying the rights for the Champions League.

[MTVN]

I think I'm going to enjoy this season

[Ryan57]

So the reason Jake Livermore took cocaine was, unfortunately, due to losing a child. :(

'The awful circumstances leave the FA facing a difficult moral dilemma given the seriousness of the case involving the England international footballer.

But there is a precedent that could allow a degree of leniency if it is established by an FA commission that Livermore was suffering some form of psychological distress at the time of his indiscretion.'

[Shaun]

That sucks, obviously, but it isn't exactly top five on "list of good coping mechanisms for grief". It'd be a dangerous precedent to excuse it, really.

[LeatherTrumpet]

Looking forward to tonight. Rooney to notch 2 but man u lose 3-2

come on

[Locke.]

Markovic not even in the provisional squad for our game against Bournemouth, looks like his days are numbered. Hope it's a loan move and not permanent.

[Babayaro.]

I think Villa might surprise a few tonight

[Ryan57]

Bit better than against Spurs. Good win since we had ten men from kick off.

[Locke.]

Wouldn't it be nice if someone tried taking a ****ing shot at Romero

[Brother Leon]

Wouldn't it be nice if somehow tried taking a ****ing shot at Romero

Not happening with Brick Wall Smallingg and the Italian Stallion at the back.

[Legend killer]

lol Louis really is a terrible manager. Just lol at him keeping Ander on the bench when he is our best player everytime he starts

As for Wayne well he has been finished for 4 years now should have sold when we had the chance

Leon i'm sure even someone with as limited knowledge of the game as yourself can see the difference a PROPER fullback does rather then having tripe like Tony V there?


Just as pathetic last year going forward maybe even worse but at least we look sound defensively

[Legend killer]

Romero
Darmian Smalling Blind Shaw
Schneiderlin Schweiny
Ander
Depay Mata
Fatty(Sadly)

Make it happen you dutch tart

[BBfanUSA]

Well this match is a pleasant one to wake up to on my birthday.

[Shaun]

Great game for Everton. Bit of a worrying prospect when they're in that form.

[BBfanUSA]

I think I need to get a green kit if they keep this form up.

[Shaun]

There seem to be a lot of detractors of it but I actually quite like the colour scheme :think:

[Shaun]

Sunderland are bloody useless.

And I see my "you peaked on opening day" comment on the last page is coming true too :hehe:

[LeatherTrumpet]

bloody hell fire

[Brother Leon]

Lol Spurs. Always provide the lols

[Brother Leon]

Couple of great goals in this game here.

[Shaun]

Another one right there

[LeatherTrumpet]

come on palace

[Jake.]

lovely stuff

[LeatherTrumpet]

city not filling their stadium

:umm2:

[Black Dagger]

Oh what would this thread do without your predictable, tedious commentary x

[LeatherTrumpet]

should have been a red card

:nono:

[Ryan57]

City's play is orgasmic. And they may yet add De Bruyne. D:

[Babayaro.]

We've been dire all game. Defence has been terrible

[Brother Leon]

John Terry really is immense.

[Black Dagger]

Splooged all over the place.

[LeatherTrumpet]

looking forward to JM's ungracious interview

[Shaun]

what a day.

[Locke.]

Looks like City are our main rivals for the title this year then

[Brother Leon]

City with Otamendi in are a problem. That said...every season they seem to have a run where they look unstoppable and then they also have a run where they look dog****.

[Locke.]

Good win, lost a bit of control when Hendo went off though. Hopefully he's alright for next week, we'll need to go with 3 in the middle vs Arsenal.

Got to say I'm surprised at just how good Benteke is looking, I wasn't expecting him to fit us playing up top by himself but he looked a proper beast tonight.

[Jack.]

I think we need Can starting against arsenal and firmino replacing lallana and Ibe. I feel Ibe would have more impact on the game if he came on after like 70 minutes. He would give us the speed. What did you think of Moreno tonight Locke?

Looked good when he came on, hopefully we keep using him as an attacking player because he's shown a few times now that he can beat pretty much any player but isn't good enough at defending. If we're doing that it pushes Markovic even further down the pecking order though, guy really needs a loan move

[Brother Leon]

Manchester top 2 this year. Quote me.

We badly need a couple additions to really challenge though.

Yeah I feel a loan move would be best for Markovic this season.

:omgno:

[Mystic Mock]

West Ham are terrible, Arsenal only lost to them because they're not natural at finishing.

Imo this season is a battle between Man City, Liverpool, and Man Utd to win the league if it's anything to go by so far.

Although if Arsenal win tomorrows game then they're dark horses to take it, it'll be their last chance to take an opening though I feel.

[Black Dagger]

It's all too easy this footballing malarky isn't it?

It'll be between United, City and Chelsea. Arsenal will flop as per usual and Liverpool will give a good fight but I don't think they've got the squad to be challenging this year

Liverpool's 11 shots compared with Arsenal's 3 :worry:

its a marathon

Supreme stuff by Cech. Rest of Arsenal are ****e. Look the weakest of the top 4 and Liverpool so far.

City or Chelsea for the title. If United are anything to go by so far it's same sh1t, different season. A battle with Liverpool for fourth ensues.

[Locke.]

Great performance from us tonight, played some lovely attacking football in the first half and if it wasn't for Cech it would have been a fairly easy win. Second half we were great defensively, look a real unit this season and Gomez is an absolute beast.

Things looking promising anyway, West Ham up next so hopefully we can make it 10 points out of 12.

[Black Dagger]

its a marathon

not a sprint

:hee:

Sorry I can't hear you over the 9 points we have.

[GiRTh]

http://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/67/590x/459414409-537720.jpgAfter his shocker against West Ham he now owes us twelve points having given them the win. He cost us three points against West Ham and kept us in this game I reckon he's on -2 so far.:joker:

Still not great considering he's was the big answer to our problem. So I'd hold of on posting pics of him still in his Chelsea strip till he at least breaks even. Do you want to keep tabs?

[MTVN]

Disgraceful second half performance from Liverpool really, dominate the first half then decide to sit on a 0-0 for the second 45 and start time wasting from 50 minutes. Embarrassing small club stuff

I am extremely confident he'll be a success for you. Although, I don't really expect a title challenge from you.

Chelsea look shaky to me, if they bag 2nd then they'll be a distant 2nd as they have been poor so far this season.

[Ryan57]

Chelsea look shaky to me, if they bag 2nd then they'll be a distant 2nd as they have been poor so far this season.

Indeed, they've not been great. But they have Jose as manager. At the start of the season I thought Chelsea would win it, but I'm thinking City now. It's early, but they have the bit between their teeth again.

[Drew.]

Terrible match by our standards, capable of much better. Whilst Liverpool are celebrating one of their best performances in recent times coming away with a 0-0 result against a side playing at 50% what they're capable of.. nothing to worry about just yet.

[Drew.]

I am dreading this season

[Brother Leon]

Coutinho to miss the game at Old Trafford :joker:

[Black Dagger]

Can we have the trophy please.

Chelsea,Liverpool and Arsenal looking **** today. I'm sure we will follow suit tomorrow :laugh:

[Locke.]

Same old, typical performance under Rodgers. I really do like the guy and want it to work out for him here but we are just as bad now as the day he took over. We are not creating chances at all, couple that with having the worst central defender I have ever witnessed playing in a Liverpool shirt and you are just asking for disappointment. Went into the second half knowing that we needed to score at least 2 goals to come out of the game with a point and we only managed to have a single shot on target, which was Lovren from 40 yards out. We've scored 2 goals in 4 games, one of those was a freak moment of magic goal by Coutinho and the other was offside. Benteke is getting 0 service, he's doing well with the ball at his feet but he's got no chance of scoring consistently if we continue this way, even when it comes to corners since we signed him I think only 2 or 3 have gone into the box, the rest have been taken short (and then ****ed up). Coutinho really is the only player we have that looks capable of creating a goal scoring opportunity, so we have no chance of scoring a goal at Old Trafford.

But yeah, both sides started quick today and it was West Ham that got the break. At that point we are still in it, but Lovren refusing to take any of the 3 or 4 opportunities to clear the ball and gifting them a second ended the game, Milner was the only one that didn't disappear.

[Brother Leon]

You don't need Coutinho at Old Trafford tbf

Just lol I said this over a year ago and was criticised for it. As I said at the time LVG and his "philosophy" is a load of rubbish I dare anyone to come out and say Moyes couldn't have done what Louis has "achieved" to date with the money he has had to spend

[Legend killer]

Bring Roy in already ffs. Louis and Giggs don't have the respect of these pampered babies like Rooney who couldn't give too ****s for the shirt

Getting dicked on the counter shocker.

What´s wrong with Chelsea? 4 games and only 4 points atm.

They won´t win the at that pace.

City however is on a roll.

I like Manchester City, so i´m happy for them.

The football was torrid last season, but there was a lot of upheaval. New country for him and new players, the disaster of the season prior and tons of injuries. I'd also say that the players didn't fit his supposed 'philosophy'. He just about got a reprieve due to finishing fourth, which was the target, although we should of been higher had he not fecked up. Still, the football should of been far better.

This summer looked to of started brightly, but its gone down hill very quickly. His methods make zero sense. Last season seemed like he didn't understand English football and it's still going on. Perhaps he's just past it. I'm sick of his methods now.

I detested Moyes' tenure, but I won't be biased. Van Gaal has spent way more than him and is delivering pathetic football. It's totally unacceptable.

I thought he'd be a success given his prior achievements and great style of play down the years. I at least expected the latter. I don't see him winning anything and nor do I see him delivering great football.

The fact a player who has asked to leave the club twice is our captain sums up everything wrong with this club atm.

I honestly don't get why it's taking him so long to get a proper striker in with Rooney? Especially considering his expecting Rooney to do his usual role at the club.

But I'm enjoying the start of the season in the Championship for now.

Watch out Premiership this man will be managing your losses next season.

^ What?

I like Manchester City, so i´m happy for them.

More than United at least.

It was at the thread in general lol. I shouldn't be smug though. We will only lose to Palace after the break and it all goes wrong.

Me and Lucas shall be toasting our weekend success this evening while the rest of you sorry bastards cry into your pints

It's a difficult time for them all <\3

[Brother Leon]

I would have done OK in a United team playing alongside Keane in midfield with David Beckham on the right, Ryan Giggs on the left and Ruud van Nistelrooy up front. I would have managed pretty well in that side.


The bitterness to Scholes :laugh:

[Black Dagger]

Hope we are ready to be dazzled by KDB

[Shaun]

I'm ready for him to be humbled by Yannick Bolasie, yes

[Black Dagger]

[Iceman]

I'm off for the match. Literally haven't had a weekend night off since I started. Absolutely delighted.

[Locke.]

Starting without our 3 best players today so not going into the game with much hope, but it seems we're playing 2 up top at long last so fingers crossed.

Amazing

[LeatherTrumpet]

Did naisy get a perfect hat-trick?

I cant remember what foot was his second (third was right)?

[Brother Leon]

****ing get in. What a debut for Martial.

[Drew.]

Martial is going to be pretty special. Loads of people jumping on his hype after today but his potential was there to see after he dicked us in the CL. Looks like a pretty quiet guy, the complete opposite to Depay who has been utter ****e so far.

[Locke.]

Losing away to City/Chelsea/Arsenal/Utd is never the worst thing in the world because they're generally the most difficult grounds to go to but the one thing you have to ask for is some heart and desire from the team and what we produced today was an absolute joke.

Rodgers had a vision for how football should be played when he was appointed and there is no way he would have sent out a team to play the way we did in that first half when he was given the job, guys lost faith in his own ability as much as us fans have. He should hand his resignation in first thing monday morning, failing that FSG just need to pull the trigger. We're into our fourth season and we're currently about level with the team he inherited from Kenny. We're not an attacking team because we don't attack or score many goals, we're not a defensive team because we concede a bucket load, we're not a possession based team because we don't keep the ball well, we're not a counter attacking team because we have very little pace in the side now.. There is no identity at all.

Great goal from Benteke, if we can get someone in asap that will build an attacking team around a partnership of him and Sturridge then I'll be feeling confident about challenging for fourth still.

End this ****ing miserable season already

Can't blame the players or Arsene today.. it all comes down to that **** Costa and Mike Dean. Grabs Koscielnys face, slaps him and then scratches Gabriel down the neck and we end up going down to 10, ****ing joke. Scummy club, scummy fans, scummy manager and scummy players. I ****ing hope Mike Dean chokes on several dicks.

We'll drop points vs Southampton so no point in me getting happy with these results.

[Black Dagger]

You will win. Scare City into bottling it more. LOL at people who said we already had the league sewn up.

Valiant performance today to gain ourselves a valuable point at home to Norwich #top4

Martial already providing the goods. Can't complain.

Aguero is the only one that can compete. Pls confirm

:laugh: Poor Lucas, it's hard being a Blue at times. I keep offering to welcome him to the better side of Manchester.

[Black Dagger]

So how is that going Lucas

I meant the capital one cup trophy, we still just about have a shot at that!!

Yeah, not the like the rest of the league isn't below too.
The shame.

They are odd kuhnts though City. They might start performing again now they are behind. They prefer the chase.

[King Gizzard]

Sherwood out lads

[King Gizzard]

Grealish has opted for England

City or Arsenal will have a seriously good player on their hands

[LeatherTrumpet]

The bookies must be raking it in over the prem this season

noone can call any games?

[Drew.]

Brilliant news, probably my favourite player outside of Arsenal at the moment.. has City written all over him in the future though

[BBfanUSA]

Everton to win 4-0 and jump to the top 4 of the table please

you predicted a 2-1 win for newcastle

[Black Dagger]

Because I'm the most pessimistic football fan in the world. Like I give a **** about a prediction game I am 10th in.

[Babayaro.]

We are an absolute shambles. Mane has ran us riot all game

[Drew.]

Chelsea have been ripped a new one

Not even the team on the pitch can distract from the shambles the club are

[LeatherTrumpet]

:umm2: at Chelsea

[King Gizzard]

Sherwood's even worse than Lambo ffs

[Brother Leon]

Mourinho has lost the plot.

[King Gizzard]

Lost it with doctorgate tbh

[Babayaro.]

I still have faith in Jose

[King Gizzard]

Good ol Celestine

[Brother Leon]

They will still come good imo. Third is their maximum position though in all honesty.

[Locke.]

They will still finish above your lot and Arsenal. It will be very tough for them to beat us and City to the top 2 though I agree

[Ryan57]

Good ol Celestine

:joker:

Those were the days. Bogarde on the bench, big Mario Melchiot at right back and Eidur and Jimmy up top.

[Ryan57]

Tactically destroyed by Arsene fecking Wenger. Pathetic. Van Gaal sees us getting destroyed and remains sat in his seat and changes nothing. And fans will still be up his arse. Yet when Moyes would sit in his seat it seen was seen as clueless.

Then Arsenal sit back in the second half and, as usual, we create next to nothing.

[Drew.]

Unbelievable first half hour, pretty much everything went perfectly. Theo keeps that kind of performance up then he's cementing that position down.

Ozil confirming his status as the best 10 in world football & Alexis ending the Hazard comparisons, not even debatable anymore.

[Black Dagger]

Thanks luvs

[Ross.]

Unbelievable game, makes up somewhat for the shambles that was the Olympiakos game

Your welcome Lucas

[Ryan57]

Now Rodgers is gone. This day gets worse.

[Drew.]

Not Klopp, don't take my Klopp

[LeatherTrumpet]

mess in merseyside

[GiRTh]

AMazing news about Liverpool. Not sure if that was a good decison if they dont get Ancelotti or Klopp.

Great game from us. I thought Man Utd would put up more of a fight. I dont think Van Gaal can get away with too many performance like that or he'll be next to go.

[Locke.]

Thanks for the effort Brendan. A really nice guy and gave me some of the best moments I've ever had supporting the club, but it was clear he hadn't fixed the problems from last season and this is the right move. Hope he takes a bit of time out to get his head right and then gets a decent opportunity somewhere.

As for us, Klopp or Ancelotti please. Not getting my hopes up though.

**** performance and result. Still think we will finish second, but reality check in how long we still have to go to truly challenge. Fair play to Arsenal, they played some quality stuff. #WengerIn.

[Brother Leon]

It is obviously Klopp. Not too concerns though tbh. Good manager, but he's known to be stubborn and how knows if his ways will work for Liverpool. Still...it's going to get very interesting at the top.

[Drew.]

Yeah Klopp makes complete sense.. will be a bit gutted, would have loved him at Arsenal. Liverpool aren't the most dislikable of clubs so in some ways i hope he does well if he goes there.

Great game from us. I thought Man Utd would put up more of a fight. I dont think Van Gaal can get away with too many performance like that or he'll be next to go.

I doubt Van Hoof will get sacked. We're a huge club but act like a small club when it comes to managers. His job was safe last season if he didn't finish in the top four, despite spending a shed load.

Also let's not forget David Moyes was only sacked in April 2014 when every other top team in Europe would of sacked him way before then.

And some fans are up his arse for some reason unbeknownst to me.

[Drew.]

Yeah, only in the supporting racism, inventing Hillsborough chants to excuse violent behaviour unlikable type of way.

Y'all are both trash :idc:

[Calderyon]

Always liked Man City though. Just wish they had developed to a top team naturally, not with a massive sum of money they got from Sheikh Mansour from Abu Dhabi.

But then again Chelsea did the same thing, but with a Russian Oligarch named Abramovich.

Mixed Chelsea and City up there for a moment.
